Catching Up

The last 2 weeks have been a whirl-wind for our family. On the 17th we had Keira's 4 month check-up. She's doing great and is now 13 lb and 24.5 inches long! She did as well as could be expected with her shots and even kept her oral vaccine down this time! Her spitting up has just about subsided and I've been testing the waters with some chocolate and extra dairy here and there. It's hard not to go overboard after going without for so long.

The rest of that week I spent doing laundry, packing and cleaning the house before our trip to Denver. We left on the 22nd and spent just less than a week with my family. Both kids did great on the plane, but we were exhausted from shuffling them and all our accessories through security etc. It also didn't help that they each took turns not sleeping at one time or another throughout the week. Luckily we were home by Friday so we had a whole weekend to recouperate.

While in Denver we visited with lots of family and friends. On Sunday we went to Auntie Sue's then took a walk to the park where Ari fed the squirrels. He loved it and has been requesting to do it again. Ari also went tool shopping with Grandpa and Daddy and helped hook up the TV in the basement. I tried to go down and tell him it was bath time, but water fun couldn't compete with guy time. I was told "Mommy go back u-tairs!" Keira had fun as well and charmed everyone with her bright smiles and sweet laughter.

Here are some pictures from our trip. Enjoy! :)
